ontroversy Over “I Love Mohammad” Sticker: Traffic Challan Sparks Debate in UP

A recent incident in Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh, has ignited a nationwide debate after a traffic police constable fined a motorcyclist for displaying a sticker reading “I Love Mohammad” on his bike. The constable claimed the phrase was “controversial” and “objectionable,” leading to a heated argument between the officer and the biker. The video of the confrontation quickly went viral on social media, sparking outrage and questions about religious bias.

Many users pointed out that stickers with names of Hindu deities like “Jai Shri Ram” or “Jai Mahakal” are commonly seen on vehicles without objection. They questioned why only the phrase “I Love Mohammad” was targeted, calling it discriminatory if rules are not applied equally to all religions.

Some argued that, according to Indian law, any sticker related to caste, religion, or sect is prohibited under the Motor Vehicles Act, and offenders can be fined. However, many found this explanation unsatisfactory, demanding consistency in law enforcement.

Following the public uproar, Baghpat police responded by suspending the constable involved and launching an investigation into the incident. Despite this action, public anger remains, with calls for stricter accountability and equal treatment for all citizens, regardless of faith.

The case highlights ongoing concerns about religious bias and the need for fair application of laws in India. As the investigation continues, the debate over religious expression and traffic regulations is far from over.
